According to Dexerto sources, LA Thieves are starting to put the finishing touches to their Call of Duty League roster for the 2023/24 season, with a mix of young stars and top European talent.

LA Thieves found themselves in an unenviable situation following the culmination of the 2022/23 season, with budget cuts dictating what was to result in some uncertainty over their roster.

This ended with all 4 players either leaving the organization or, in the case of Sam ‘Octane’ Larew, retiring.

Zack ‘Drazah’ Jordan signed with Atlanta FaZe, Dylan ‘Envoy’ Hannon joined Toronto Ultra and Kenny ‘Kenny’ Williams has been heavily linked with a move away to OpTic Texas.

So, with the top teams and players locked up, the Thieves have been tasked with building a squad of the best available players.

With that in mind, a roster that they are currently targeting consists of:

  • Daniel ‘Ghosty’ Rothe
  • Marcus ‘Afro’ Reid
  • Cameron ‘Cammy’ McKilligan
  • Joe ‘JoeDeceives’ Romero

At the time of writing, no contracts have been signed, so there is still scope for the situation to change.

Cammy and Afro previously played for Minnesota Røkkr together, in what turned out to be a lacklustre season as they finished 6th in the regular season standings, having struggled much throughout the middle portion of the year.

JoeDeceives was a standout player on the struggling LA Guerrillas side and certainly proved his value in the pro league during his rookie year, while Ghosty was the mastermind that helped turn OpTic Texas’ season around, and was released at the end of the year much to the chagrin of many OpTic fans.

Another name that has been mentioned is EU Challengers star Abuzah, though multiple sources couldn’t confirm this.
